Monday, continued …
On the journey back the ancestral house, Hou YI and Anna simple leant on each other, clasping their hands. It was, despite everything and having staff in the car, just delightful to have some private time together, simply relaxing in each other's company. At one point Hou Yi could not help himself and gave her a short passionate kiss before whispering in Anna's ear "I love you, so much"
Anna's immediate reply was "I love you too." She then leaned over and snuggled into Hou Yi's embrace, which for her felt perfect.
With Anna's few words, Hou Yi realised how tired Anna was. He knew that he needed to ensure that she got to bed as quickly as possible, so that she could rest. The last thing that either of them needed was anything else to happen, particularly to their baby. He quietly let the bodyguard know to call the ancestral home to have Anna's wheelchair inside the door, so Anna could be placed in it when they arrived home.
